INFLUENCES ON NATIVE AMERICAN LANGUAGE REVITALIZATION IN THE U.S.: IDEOLOGY AND CULTURE A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Purdue University by Amelia Chantal Shettle In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts December 2015 Purdue University West Lafayette, Indiana ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my committee members, especially Daryl Baldwin for being added to the committee late and under no obligation to do so. Your addition to the committee has been invaluable, thank you. Also, Elena Benedicto, Myrdene Anderson, and Mary Niepokuj, your contributions, feedback, advice, and guidance have made this thesis what it is. I could not have completed it without the attention you have given to both it and me. In addition to direct feedback and advice, the ideas we have discussed in the classes and field trips I have taken with you have directly influenced different aspects of my research and I appreciate the discussions you each facilitated in those contexts.
